Can you post a screenshot of the missing fonts window?

Hello, 

This issue has recently started appearing. Please note that the font was downloaded directly from Adobe Fonts.

Also, I’m using Windows, not Mac. 

Thanks,

Have you tried signing out of your Adobe account and then signing in again in your Creative Cloud Desktop App? I have found that issues with Adobe Fonts can usually be solved through this simple action.

I don't understand. Your screenshot does not show any missing font warning but a message about OpenType properties. What did you try to get when this message appeared?

Hi @warren_6050

 

Thanks for sharing the screenshots. As the expert noticed, there isn't a missing font warning showing up, but rather a message saying 'OpenType properties are not applicable.' This usually appears when the selected font, in this case Quiche Sans Regular, doesn't support certain OpenType features like stylistic alternates or small caps, which is why those options aren't available.

Since you mentioned the font was activated from Adobe Fonts but showed as unavailable earlier, I'd still suggest signing out of your Creative Cloud desktop app and signing back in to refresh your font activation. After that, try restarting InDesign and check if the font appears correctly.

Could you also confirm which version of InDesign and operating system you're using, and let me know if this issue is happening in all your documents or just a specific one? Once you try signing out and back in, please let me know if the issue with the font availability is resolved and if that OpenType message still shows up. If the issue persists, then try clearing the font cache and see if it helps.

 

Looking forward to hearing back from you. 

Abhishek
